Escaped Alone
★★★★☆ Environmental dystopia
Following its Scottish premiere at The Tron earlier this month Escaped Alone, Caryl Churchill’s dystopian play that had its UK premiere at the Royal Court in 2016, comes to the Traverse for five performances only.
Moonset
★★★☆☆ Brave
Moonset, Maryam Hamidi’s coming-of-age story from the Citizens Theatre at the Traverse, is full of fire and anger. Its wilful refusal to settle down proves both a strength and a weakness.
She Wolf
★★★★★ Fierce
Isla Cowan’s hard-hitting monologue She Wolf, winner of this year’s Assembly ART Award and the Alpine Fellowship Theatre Prize, fits perfectly in the intimate space of the Assembly Roxy Downstairs.
